LIGHT OVERCOAT SEASON
AftT being In the courts for over eleven
years the famous Colorado mining suit of
James Iwyle against James F. Burns, who
at the time of the commencement of the
litigation was president of the Portland
fluid Mining company, has been settled.
The settlement1, the term of which were
not made public and according to the at
torney In the ease, never will be made
public, was reached yesterday at a con
fiieme held at (ilenwood where! the case
had br-en assigned for another trial at
the October term of the Mills county court.
The case bad been transferred from the
district court of Pottawattamie county In
Council Bluffs to the court at Olenwood
on application of Burn, who secured a
verdict In his favor at the second trial
in 190f).
The announcement that the long pending
suit hHd been finally settled did not cause
any surprise In Council Bluffs as It was
generally believed that both parties to
the suit were anxious to avoid the ez
tense of another trial.
Nothing In the record of the court at
Olenwood Indicates the terms of settle
ment. The entry merely read "settled and
dismissed. Kach party to pay his own
costs."
Attorneys Interested In the case In re
sponse to enquiries stated they could give
no Information, and one of the attorneys
declared that the terms of the settlement
were to be secret and that all the at
torney had been put on, their honor not to
disclose them.
Two Lawyers Settle It.
It was said, however, that the agreement
for a settlement wa reached several days
ago between J. C. Pchuyler of Denver, one
of Doyle' attorney and an attorney
named Harris, representing Burn. The
agreement waa reached without the Inter
position of the principal. The filing of
the motion for dismissal of the suit In
Olenwood waa preceded by a conference In
that city yesterday morning between at
torney for the litigants.' Doyle was
represented by J. C. Schuyler of Denver
and Oeorge 8. Wright of thl city, while
Burns was represented by Former Gov
ernor Charles S. .Thomas, who arrived
from Colorado Monday night, and John
Y. Stone and L. T. Qenung, both of Olen
wood. Congressman Walter I. Smith, the
leading local attorney for Burns, was not
present at the conference.
The long drawn out litigation ha cost
both Doyle and Burns an Immense sum of
money. At the first trial In 1901, both had
an army of witnesses here, but these ex
penses were Small In comparison with the
enormous fee which have been paid at
torneys for Burns. The court costs of the
suit up to the time It waa ordered trans
ferred to Olenwood amounted to $8,214.35.
The cost of the transcript of the case,
which waa certified up to the Mills county
district court was $1,200, so the total court
costs up to the settlement yesterday, It
Is said, must have exceeded $10,000.
History of the Case.
Doyle and Burns had prospected to
gether In the early days of the Cripple
Creek district and It was Doyle who lo
cated the famous Portland mine, from
which millions were later taken out. Doyle
and Burns, after the latter had become
president of the Portland Oold Mining com
pany, fell out and In February, 1S98, Doyle
brought suit against Burns In the district
court of Pottawattamie county, service
being secured on Burns while he was at
tending a meeting of the stockholders of
the company, which waa Incorporated
under the laws of Iowa.
Doyle claimed one-half of the stock Is
sued by the Portland company In payment
for three mining claims known as the
Devil's Own, Robtall No. 2 and the Tidal
Wave, which amounted to $M,000. In No
vember, 1838, after bringing his suit here
Doyle secured a Judgment by default for
$717,025, although Burn . had secured
In the Colorado court an- Injunction re
straining him from prosecuting the suit in
the Iowa courts. On his return to Colo
rado Doyle, who was then mayor of Victor,
was committed to Jail for contempt of
court and he actually remained behind the
bars for eight months. In August, 1899,
this Judgment was set aside and Burns
given leave to defend, one of the condi
tions being that all proceeding against
Doyle In Colorado be discontinued. The
trial began In the district court here In Oc
tober, 1901, but after a week had been
consumed In taking evidence Doyle set up
new Issues In an amendment to his peti
tion and the trial was started afresh on
November 12. In his amended petition
Doyle sued in all for $978,135. The trial was
concluded lecember 20, 1901. On December
2 a motion for a new trial and arrest of
Judgment was filed and the hearing on
the motion held February 10, 1902, during
recess. It was overruled and on April 9,
1902, or more than four years after the
suit was begun. Judgment was entered
against Burns, who filed a supersedeas
bond In the sum of $'0,000. furnished by
three eastern bonding companies and the
case waa taken to the supreme court,
which on April 9, 1904, set aside the ver
dict and sent the case back for retrial on
the ground that the measure of damages
was excessive.
On March 8, 1906. the second trial of the
case was begun In the district court here
and on April the Jury returned a verdict In
favor of Burns. On March .- 190U, Doyle's
mutton for a new trial was sustained by
Jii(l'e Thornell and on April 14 Hums filed
notice of appeal. On December 16,. 1907, the
order of Judge Thornell granting a new
trial was confirmed by the supreme court.
Early last year Burns tiled a motion for a
change of venue, which was sustained and
the rase was ordered removed to the,, dis
trict court of Mills county, where the
third trial was assigned for next Monday.

to meet the demands on the latter depart
ment.
Jt was decided to Ignore the protest
against the assessment for the sewer re
cently constructed along the alley between
Vine street and Broadway from Bryant
slrct to First street. Property owners
abutting objected to the assessment on the
grounds that their lots were already con
nected with sewer on Broadway or on
Vine street.
K. A. Wlckham and James Saguln signed
up their contract for the new. concrete
bridges at North Eighth and Benton streets,
respectively.

Declare Many of Them Are I Hrora
petent mid Indifferent.
At the meeting of the Board of Education
last night Member Brooks Reed placed him
self on record as opposed to permitting
the teacher of the public schools of Coun
cil Bluffs to attend the annual meeting
of the Iowa State Teachers' association at
what he considered the expense and time
of the school district.
"It Is establishing a bad precedent to per
mit these teachers to go away on a Junket
of this kind," declared Mr. Reed, "when
during vacation they will not spend any
of their time or any of their money Jn
an effort to Improve themselves. The
trouble with the schools here Is that they
are loaded down with a lot of Incompetent
teachers who have become ' veritable
barnacles. No matter how incompetent,
they are kept on the list and their salaries
Increased yearly. They never die, they
never get married, but they rlang onto their
Jobs tike grim death. I for one believe
It Is time to stop closing the schools on
every possible excuse."
Mr. Reed's arraignment of the teachers of
the city schools was made when Superin
tendent Beverldge asked the board to per
mit of the closing of the high school for
two days of the state meeting at Des
Moines as a number of the faculty desired
to attend. He also asked that any teachers
who desired to attend be permitted to do
so without loss of pay for tha two days.
The request, after a prolonged discussion,
was granted, and the high school teachers
who do not go to Des Moines will be
utilized to fill the places of the grade
teachers who do attend the meeting.
At the suggestion of Superintendent
Beverldge it w-as decided to purchase eighty
rifleB for the cadet company at a cost of
$1.75 a weapon.
The question of boiler Insurance was re
ferred to a special committee consisting
of Members Klllpack and Cape). At pres
ent the district carries $S0,000 insurance,
with a maximum of $15,000 on any one
building. Some of the members felt that
this amount might be reduced if the dis
trict was not liable for injury to children
or teachers.
Superintendent Beverldge made the fol
lowing statistical report for the first month
of school ending October 1:
Entire enrollment, boys, 2,501; girls, 2.624;
total, 5,125. Average dally attendance,
4.783.03. Per cent of attendance, 87.89. Num

ECZEMA VICTIM
GAVE UP HOPE
After Suffering a Year with Raw,
Watery Humor on Hands and Face
Prescriptions Did Not Do a
Bit of Good-Scratched Till Blood
Came and Had to Quit Work.
COMPLETELY CURED
BY CUTICURA REMEDIES
"I suffered with nczema for one year
and had two of the best doctors io
town, but their medi
cine did not help me.
First of all there were
small white pimples
on my left hand and
I had to scratch until
the blood came. Then
thev would puff up
and water would run
out. Wherever tliia
water would run there
would be more pim-
filtts until my whole
eft hand was a mass
of sores. Then my
other hand became affected and they
were like a piece of raw meat. Then it
came on my faoe, neck and under my
rlfht arm so that I was unable to raisa
my arm for two weeks. It became so
bad that I was obliged to give up work.
"About four months ago I started to
doctor and the doctor told me it waa
eczema. So he told me to pet
ointment and soap. I used them for a
month and they didn't do me one bit
of good so I tried anofhsr doctor. II
faro me three different kinds of medi
cines, but I was very much put out
when these remedies did not help me.
I was unable to ulnen at night and I
gave up all hope until I deciaed to try
the Cuticura Kennedies. I used two
cakes of Cuticura boap, two boxes of
Cuticura Ointment and three bottles
of Cuticura KesolvcDt and I am jrlad
to say I am cured. Miss Nora Shuns,
